National Education Nature Park Workshops at RHS Gardens

We are delivering free workshops at RHS Gardens for students to learn and develop the skills and knowledge needed to transform their school grounds

The National Education Nature Park and Climate Action Awards empower children and young people to make a positive difference to both their own and nature’s future.

To support schools, we are delivering free National Education Nature Park workshops at RHS Gardens for students to learn and develop the skills and knowledge needed to transform their school grounds and inspire them to continue their journey back at school. These workshops are suitable for every stage of engagement with the National Education Nature Park programme.

The aim of the National Education Nature Park is to encourage young people to develop a meaningful connection to nature, contribute to nature recovery across the country and build resilience for a changing world.

These school workshops are free (pre-booked) and run by experienced education officers, based at each site.

The session will explore ways to observe, record, monitor and increase biodiversity. The workshop will inspire students to continue their Nature Park journey at school and will include planting something to take back to their school grounds.
